Couldn't load pickup availability
No. 5 is an original one-of-a-kind contemporary mixed media painting by Sergio Aranda, created in 2024. Built on canvas with sculptural layers of sawdust, acrylics, mineral pigments, and mixed media, the artwork combines urban aesthetics with heavily weathered textures, creating a surface that feels excavated rather than painted.
Dominated by a bold red circular motif surrounding a fragmented stencil portrait, No. 5 explores themes of identity, memory, erosion, and the passage of time. The distressed surface, scratches, translucent layers, and tactile relief evoke the appearance of aged walls shaped by decades of history, reflecting Sergio Aranda's signature approach of painting the memory of materials.
Unlike flat paintings, every area of the surface reveals subtle relief and handcrafted texture. The interaction between smooth paint, rough sawdust, and layered finishes changes with the light, giving the artwork depth and presence from every angle.
This original artwork is ideal for collectors of contemporary art, urban art, street art, textured paintings, abstract figurative art, industrial interiors, loft spaces, Wabi-Sabi design, and modern minimalist interiors.
Whether displayed in a living room, office, gallery wall, hotel, or architectural space, No. 5 creates a striking focal point while maintaining a refined contemporary aesthetic.

Why Collect Sergio Aranda?
Sergio Aranda is a contemporary mixed media artist whose work investigates the beauty of time, erosion, and material memory. Through handcrafted textures made with natural materials, each painting becomes a unique surface where architecture, urban archaeology, and Wabi-Sabi aesthetics converge.
Every artwork is entirely handmade in Barcelona and exists as a single original piece—never mass-produced or printed.
Art Care & Preservation
Art Care & Preservation
- Display & Lighting: While the archival varnish provides high-end UV protection, we highly recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to direct, harsh sunlight. To fully appreciate the shifting shadows of the sculptural gesso, display the piece under high-quality ambient lighting or dedicated LED art spotlights.
- Dusting & Cleaning: Due to the rich, sand-crusted organic texture, dust may settle over time. Never use water, liquid cleaners, damp cloths, or chemical solvents on the surface. To clean, gently sweep the textured relief using a dry, clean, soft-bristled brush (such as a premium makeup brush or a soft hake paintbrush).
- Humidity & Temperature: Fine art canvases thrive in stable environments. Display your painting in spaces with controlled humidity and temperature. Avoid hanging the artwork directly above heavy heat sources (like active fireplaces or radiators) or in high-moisture rooms like small, unventilated bathrooms.
- Handling: When moving or hanging your artwork, always hold it securely by the wooden stretcher bar edges. Avoid pressing directly against the center of the canvas to protect the structural tension and the delicate, raised mineral reliefs.
